Acts 13:1-3 shows up a few key elements to hearing God’s voice frequently and clearly.

In Romans 8:28 God promises to make everything work for good to those who love him. This is clearly illustrated in the story of Joseph found in Genesis 37 – 50. By looking at this example from Scripture we can find encouragement when facing adversity and learn how to respond in faith to our own challenges.

In Acts 12 the early church models a prayerful response when we encounter the impact of evil in the world. When we pray in the face of impossible circumstances, we experience the unstoppable power of God.

Acts 11 is the story of the church advancing through the contributions of every member. It doesn't matter if you feel like an anonymous disciple or a known leader, God's plan is to build His kingdom through your participation.

The story of Jesus is simple, reliable and creates opportunities for us to respond.

Acts 10:1-23 is the story of God's plan for the church to be a place for everyone everywhere.

Acts 9 teaches that the resurrection power of Jesus, and the presence of the Holy Spirit create opportunities for supernatural healingadn resurrection today.

Acts 9:19-31 teaches us that when we say yes to Jesus we will receive all kinds of responses to the new life we have found.

Faith is foundational in our relationship with God. It's important to look at the life of Abram and see how God worked through his faith to be a blessing to the entire world.

Act 9:10-19 teaches us that when God gives us an inconvenient assignment we should respond in obedience so we can participate in the divine appointment that He arranged.

No matter who you are, where you are, what you're doing, or how toxic the atmosphere around you might be, Jesus has a plan to change your life. The story of Saul's conversion in Acts 9 reminds us that God shows up in personal and powerful ways to forgive us and reveal a new path that leads to life.

Acts 8 teaches us that when we follow the direction of the Holy Spirit we will find ourselves in the right place at the right time to speak the right words that build God's Kingdom in us and through us.

This message is based on an incident in the life of Moses found in Exodus 15 where the Lord made the bitter waters of Marah sweet. Three principles emerge that teach us how to deal with life’s disappointments. By following this Biblical pattern, we can overcome our own disappointments and find the Lord can still turn bitter experiences around and make them work for our good.

Richard Exley served as the Lead Pastor of Christian Chapel from 1980-1992. He shared with us today about the difference between True Guilt & False Guilt.

Acts 8 gives us a real world picture of discipleship. Being a disciple is a privilege and a responsibility. It can also be a messy process that involves correction from the Scriptures, the Holy Spirit, and other believers.

Following Jesus does not exempt us from difficulty, but it does guarantee that God is working to turn every situation around. God can use every moment of our lives for the triumph of His kingdom in us and through us in the world.

We celebrated 25 years of Royal Family Kids Camp at Christian Chapel with a special message from Wayne Tesch, the founder of RFK. RFK provides a week of life-changing week of camp each summer for children in foster care.

The Holy Spirit can give us power to use all of our words for his purposes all of the time. In Acts 6-7 we Stephen teaches us that when our lives are soaked in the Scriptures we’re giving the Holy Spirit more material to use to inspire our speech.

The Holy Spirit fills us with power to fulfill the calling that God has on our lives. In Acts 6, the story of Stephen provides an encouraging picture of a Spirit empowered life.

Acts 6 teaches us that God can turn every obstacle we face into an opporutnity to follow Jesus, walk with the Holy Spirit, and find meaningful connections in community.
